Project Name: Gradus Resonare Project Credits: Matthew Conway & Stephanie Saltzman Description: Gradus Resonare aims to generate a responsive inhabitant ghost. Through this ghost, other inhabitants will be able to trace previous user movements through the space through sound. Additional user movements through space will be layered continuously, generating a cacophony of sounds. This cacophony represents the trace or ghost of all inhabitants of a singular space after they have left the space. This responsive system relates movement to space and history to presence. The physicality of the prosthetic step adds additional response by causing an inhabitant to become more aware of their movement. This new awareness of movement is further hieghtened by additional analog sounds, which bring a more direct focus on the immediate user's movements in relation to the audio of the ghosts'. Echoes of bodies in space proliferate through time and space, up and down steps.
